Ep91 Posted February 12, 2006 Posted February 12, 2006 Anyone ever done this?You can get hold of pretty tidy Glanza V Auto's for a good price, but ideally i would like a manual!Has anyone ever done a Manual conversion from the standard Auto box, or know of anyone who has?
DAN_GTT Posted February 12, 2006 Posted February 12, 2006 Im sure that ive heard someones done it, but was a long time ago now
scutch0 Posted February 13, 2006 Posted February 13, 2006 speak to andrew at toyotasera.co.uk he did a auto to manual conversion when he 4efte converted his toyota sera.Rich.
scutch0 Posted February 13, 2006 Posted February 13, 2006 the thing you have to remember is its all very labour intensive... and if its gonna cost you £800 you may as well just go and get a manual to start with, the reason andrew converted his sera is because manual seras are quite rare, whereas manual glanzas are not.its not only the mechanicals that will have to be done either, it'll need a new ecu etc, pedal mountings and probably some slight rewiring too.if its a really cheap one then i'd do it, if your only saving yourself £500-£700 i wouldnt bother.just my opinion.Rich.
Ep91 Posted February 13, 2006 Author Posted February 13, 2006 Cheers Rich, i assumed what you saod about the re-wiring and pedal mounting....I was just curios, i hate seeing sexy Glanza's tfor good money then seeing they are an auto... nothing against them! Ild just rarher have my 5 speed manual!
